Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
2/5 53% A.C.O.D. (2013) " It's neither consistently funny nor poignant enough to make the most of its impressive cast." — The Dissolve
Posted Oct 2, 2013
3.5/5 83% Don Jon (2013) " [Although] Gordon-Levitt says a little bit about a lot of things,...Don Jon is a continuously entertaining and fitfully provocative first-time effort." — The Dissolve
Posted Sep 26, 2013
2/5 50% Mademoiselle C (2013) " Mademoiselle C succeeds in showcasing the rarified entity that is Carine Roitfeld...but it's ultimately more of a fawning love letter than a nuanced profile of a woman who surely must be more fascinating than she comes off here." — The Dissolve
Posted Sep 11, 2013
2/5 64% One Direction: This Is Us (2013) " This Is Us lays the One Direction guys out as slabs of meat on the altar of teen-pop fandom, giving them little more dimension than the cardboard cutouts and posters that decorate the bedrooms of their adoring fans." — The Dissolve
Posted Aug 29, 2013
2/5 12% The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (2013) " There's a germ of something interesting and different within the film's narrative tangle, but it's unfortunately been subsumed by Hollywood's dedication to replicating previous successes." — The Dissolve
Posted Aug 21, 2013
2.5/5 47% We're The Millers (2013) " The film's humor ... tends toward the mean-spirited and cynical throughout-which ultimately makes [the] inevitable happy ending ring all the more false." — The Dissolve
Posted Aug 6, 2013
4/5 65% Turbo (2013) " There's nothing remotely revolutionary about Turbo's underdog-sports narrative, but ... the film's emotional beats are no less potent for being expected, thanks to the ground-level focus on the human-snail relationships that fuel them." — The Dissolve
Posted Jul 16, 2013
2.5/5 63% Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain (2013) " The Kevin Hart brand is clearly doing well, but Let Me Explain doesn't seem interested in providing anything more than a surface-level presentation of the product." — The Dissolve
Posted Jul 11, 2013
C 48% The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 (2012) " A messy, unwieldy slab of film product that's targeted directly at fans of the book series, with little regard for anyone else." — AV Club
Posted Nov 15, 2012
C- 77% Katy Perry: Part of Me (2012) " Part Of Me often feels like the offspring of E! True Hollywood Story and an infomercial for Katy Perry Inc." — AV Club
Posted Jul 4, 2012
D+ 64% Justin Bieber: Never Say Never (2011) " The film's premise-that Bieber achieved his superstardom through years of hard work overcoming towering obstacles-is so ludicrously flawed that everything built upon it borders on self-parody." — AV Club
Posted Feb 10, 2011
B- 43% Dinner for Schmucks (2010) " Dinner For Schmucks is leagues ahead of its forebear in terms of mass appeal, but its laughs are more silly than scathing." — AV Club
Posted Jul 29, 2010
C 49% The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010) " With roughly 20 minutes of its two-hour running time devoted to characters doing something besides alternately moping and declaring their eternal love for each other, Eclipse stands as the most action-packed entry yet." — AV Club
Posted Jun 29, 2010
D 15% Sex and the City 2 (2010) " The movie completely unravels into a pastiche of wish-fulfillment, slapstick, and ham-handed social commentary." — AV Club
Posted May 27, 2010
C- 27% The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) " In spite of its wealth of conflict, New Moon suffers from a dearth of accompanying tension and excitement, thanks to the increasingly tedious relationship at its center." — AV Club
Posted Nov 19, 2009
C- 49% Twilight (2008) " While the movie attempts to find an compelling middle ground between gothic supernaturalism and teenage romance, it usually winds up stumbling into the inane territory implied by both descriptions." — AV Club
